spice mill

Seasoning grinding device

A spice mill is a small device for grinding whole spices into powder.

Unlike pepper mills designed for one spice, a spice mill handles various seeds and dried aromatics—cumin, coriander, cardamom.

Electric coffee grinders often double as spice mills: I keep a separate spice mill so my cumin doesn't taste like coffee.
